Got the LB straight away, amazed he was capped. He was truly dreadful

Not as bizarre as the substitute who was capped a lot more

Well I didn't enter last year and I wont be this year but will chuck a few quid to the charity.You're all saying easy and I don't have the foggiest apart from those where there's an actual photo of the person - at a first glance, 1 possibly 2 out of 5.

I wouldn't mind, but if I ever went on Mastermind I'd have CCFC as my chosen subject which is worrying!

rob9872 · Dec 17, 2019

Ah ok - I get it now upto 4 /5

rob9872 · Dec 17, 2019

Ok up to 5 but no idea on the latest one - the CM, not even an inkling.Will spend some time on it back at work tomorrow!

pipkin73 · Dec 17, 2019

Think i have them all, Centre Mid 1 was a hard one though. Cock and Dick helped though (never thought i would ever say or type that) lol

It’s too easy. I need to sharpen up my game

Still a way to smuggle in Faisal El-Idrissi

Grendel · Dec 18, 2019

So here we have

Central Midfielder 2

So a player who appeared in the mid 70's played nearly 100 games for us and over 350 in total

Now I know this means nothing to the younger audience but this is a household name a which I think you will all know. See the clues to a TV programme below to also help

Grendel · Dec 18, 2019

Right Midfield

A name that has a sort of Christmas connection - made a big impact in his one season in the Championship but oddly his career just drifted after that and he played for several lower league and part time clubs

ajsccfc · Dec 18, 2019

Once you've posted the lot, message you with the answers and a screenshot of a donation right?

Grendel · Dec 18, 2019

Left Midfield

So 3 today then two tomorrow and then two substitutes on Friday - a goalkeeper and an outfield player

Thats what age does to you:

He is a left winger from the 80's

Played several times for England and scored 4 goals
Has played for around 30 different clubs including some Premier "big boys"
Has been an international manager (for a week from what I can work out)
Is a Premier League pundit for an overseas TV channel

Yes please mate

rob9872 · Dec 18, 2019

Think I have all 9 now, but a couple of those with clues if anything, make less sense to me even though I have an answer which is worrying.

Eg if one is who I think it is then dick makes sense but not cock and I have a household name for the CM but clue is not helping!

Ah yes it is lol - I do have him!

Calista · Dec 18, 2019

Feeling brain dead and completely overwhelmed by problems atm, so despite my triumph last year there’s no way I can compete in this.

Several of these have me stumped but I was interested to see the photo of the left mid in his advanced years, still recognisable. An out-and out winger really, and unbelievable at the start of his career, when I was lucky enough to watch him quite a few times. Sadly, pretty useless by the time we got him!

This one I’m told is easier than last years and I honestly was amazed you got them all last time

Sorry to hear you have some problems but thanks for taking time to donate to this years cause anyway - really appreciate it!

I was struggling with all of them but know this one well. Knew him in England and met him many times in Canada where he recommended me to a “professional” team when I emigrated.
Sorry Grendel if that’s maybe adding a clue

Johnnythespider · Dec 19, 2019

Central midfielder 1 has me stumped, got all the other's

Grendel · Dec 19, 2019

So we get to the forward line up and both are from the Championship years and even make our current strike force look prolific

Centre Forward 1

Grendel · Dec 19, 2019

Centre Forward 2

I guess at least Sky Blue Dreamer will rate this guy as he's got a good goals per minute ratio - for his one goal - which to be fair is one more than his strike partner who even played more games

rob9872 · Dec 19, 2019

Ok, so I have 10/11. CF 1 is a joke. Just been through the forwards we had then and 5 of them are black leaving 5 others and it looks like none of them. £ definite no's so it's going to be a 50/50 gamble between two players that I'm fairly sure it isn't!

I did have to trawl to find a picture of him in sky blue it says it’s him but I agree looks nothing like him now

I was going to have a specific goalkeeper as a sub but can’t find a picture. So I’ll put in a defender and a forward

Found the game now - a 4-0 victory and I'm still not 100% it's him!

Brighton Sky Blue · Dec 19, 2019

I have them all except the left winger-which comes as a surprise even to me.

Think I remember trying to copy an awful Cruyff turn he attempted either in that game or one around then.

wantageskyblue · Dec 20, 2019

Finally figured out CF1 ( after doing more detective work than Morse) so I have them all now too.

Presumably like me that involved, look at our kit for the year, look at the opposition we played that season, work out who's kit it was, find the game, look at the team and then guess by process of elimination. Even then I wouldn't bet my house on being correct!

Exactly!

Grendel · Dec 20, 2019

OK last 2

Substitute 1

You need the last name of this rock chick:

And combine with the last name of this famous actor

This will get you to the name of yet another Championship striker who was much travelled and to me is known by 3 little words

Grendel · Dec 20, 2019

Substitute 2

Defender - good luck!

Grendel · Dec 20, 2019

All done so I will look say next weekend after Christmas to see responses

rob9872 · Dec 20, 2019

Any clues for the 2nd sub? I really don't recognise him. Looks like a bit like an old version of the right back we had on loan a million times, but he's still playing and doesn't have grey hair!

I was thinking the same thing but I don’t think it is Richard Duffy either

ajsccfc · Dec 20, 2019

Done! I'm pretty confident about the last sub, and an assist to my taste in rotten 2000s nu-metal for the first

Brighton Sky Blue · Dec 20, 2019

Got them all, not easy for a young'un but appreciate the clues
